BXBX NOVEL Chapter 26
She was not seeking for his sympathy. She only wanted him to know that she was truly injured this afternoon.
Susan sent An Xiaowan back to the villa.
The quiet courtyard was a sign for An Xiaowan that Huo Shen was not back.
It didn’t matter anyway, Assistant Luo or the butler would report everything to him.
An Xiaowan let the servants help her as she slowly walked to her room. After the door was closed, she took out her phone and saw a text message from Xia Duo:
“—It’s my birthday next Wednesday. Xiaowan, will you come?”
An e-invitation was also attached at the end of the message.
An Xiaowan was surprised to see the message from Xia Duo, inviting her to the banquet.
When they were still students, Xia Duo and An Xiaowan were best friends, and they were always seen together. Even after all those things happened to her, Xia Duo still believed in her.
Unfortunately, Xia Duo was also in a pinch herself, so she could not help An Xiaowan much.
After that, Xia Duo, who came from a humble background, married into a rich and powerful family. Xia Duo then lost her freedom, and they contacted each other less frequently.
Since Xia Duo invited her for her birthday celebration, she would definitely attend.
“—Okay, I will definitely be there.”
Right after An Xiaowan sent her reply, she heard the rushed footsteps of a few servants approaching. They knocked on the door and asked, “Ms. An, do you need to see a doctor for your leg?”
She projected a soft voice and agreed to their suggestion.
A few doctors came in following behind the butler. They carefully examined her ankle using the medication they brought.
An Xiaowan endured the pain and pursed her lips to prevent any noise from escaping her mouth.
Looking at this situation, the butler frowned lightly. He then picked up the phone and called Assistant Luo.
“Ms. An twisted her ankle, and it looks quite serious.”
Assistant Luo was stunned for a moment before he relayed the message to Huo Shen.
The gorgeous man sitting behind the office desk remained still. After neatly signing the document in his hand, he raised his head slowly and said in a cold tone, “Just look for the doctor for such trivial matters.”
Assistant Luo nodded his head. “The doctors have gone over.”
Huo Shen continued to concentrate on his work. It was as if the news of the woman’s injury could not even cause a ripple in his heart.
—
Because of her injury, An Xiaowan’s only focus right now was to rest and heal.
She failed the audition, and now she could not even work due to her injury. Also, the deadline for paying her father’s medical fees was approaching.
An Xiaowan was feeling very anxious. After thinking about all the possible ways, she felt that she should ask Huo Shen for a sum of money.
After all, she had become his lover.
Her sugar daddy, Master Huo, was the most distinguished man in the Capital with the most money and power.
But even till this point, this Master Huo had been very stingy!
An Xiaowan was furious.
For the next week, An Xiaowan did not see Huo Shen at all.
It seemed like he had forgotten about this residence.
An Xiaowan mind started wandering and making guesses. Either Huo Shen had so quickly become sick of her, or, this was her punishment for flirting with Gong Li in public.
What a paranoid and arrogant man!
An Xiaowan pouted.
After thinking for a while, her eyes suddenly brightened.
She walked into the bathroom and prepared a bubble bath in the luxurious jacuzzi, and then she spread some rose petals in it. Once the entire bathroom became steamy, she took out her phone and selfie stick and started getting into various poses.
The bubbles and rose petals made her body in the water only subtly visible.
But her seaweed-like long hair, her exposed pretty shoulders covered with water droplets, together with her dreamy eyes, were all forming an extremely captivating and sensual scene!
